Apple Resolves iPhone 15 Pro Display Shortage; Develops Bezel-Less iPhone

However, some reports have suggested that the iPhone 15 Pro could face a delay due to issues with screen production. Nevertheless, a recent report from Display Supply Chain Consultants indicates that LG Display has successfully resolved the display challenges.

According to sources, Apple has ambitious plans to create an iPhone with a truly bezel-less display. To achieve this, the company has requested Samsung and LG Display to develop flat OLED panels without any bezels. This requires advancements in thin film encapsulation (TFE) and under-panel camera (UPC) technologies to eliminate bezels. Additionally, space must be allocated for antennas, while Face ID sensors and cameras will be placed beneath the display for a seamless design.

To create a bezel-less display, the outer film encapsulation of the product must be even thinner than the current design, and the UPC should blend in seamlessly with the rest of the display, enhancing the overall user experience and immersion.

Apple’s pursuit of a bezel-less iPhone marks a significant step forward in smartphone design, promising users a more immersive and seamless visual experience. As Apple collaborates with its display partners to overcome technical challenges, enthusiasts eagerly await the arrival of the bezel-less iPhone that could potentially revolutionize the smartphone industry.

According to sources, Samsung Display and LG Display are developing organic light-emitting diodes (OLEDs) in order to meet Apple’s requirement for a bezel-less front display on the next iPhone models. While the iPhone 15 series is expected to have smaller front display bezels, Apple’s long-term goal is a bezel-free design. The iPhone 15 Pro Max, in instance, is said to have bezels that are only 1.55mm thick.
